Okaysmaller wheels rotate slower...so your wrong.

The ft axel is designed to run slightly faster than the rear to allow the driver to shift to 4wd while moving at speed. If both axels were geared the same, you could not engage 4wd smooth. Awd vehicles have a limited slip between ft & rear end. On vehicles that have lock up function on awd they still have to be unlocked to drive on hard surfaces.

In case this isn't a troll despite appearances:smaller wheels rotate slower...so your wrong.
No, ed1978, that is not the case. As several posts have pointed out, the front wheel gearing on all 4WD tractors is designed to cause the front wheels to pull ahead slightly more inches per unit time than the rear. That is what Caustic... meant saying that the smaller (front) wheels "rotate at a faster rate than the rear ones." OK, maybe his description was worded imperfectly but he is correct. Assuming std size tires and wheels it has nothing in the world to do with the size of the tire. It is the intentional gearing driving those tires. That design is on purpose to cause the front wheels to pull ahead just slightly.smaller wheels rotate slower...so your wrong.

This entire topic is covered, if I may say so, IMHO as I see people say, by my post #59.

Not sure about every level, my engine only goes at one rpm.He’s wrong on every level. The smaller wheels turn more RPMs to drive the same speed and the front wheels are geared to go faster as in distance traveled than the rears.
Interesting. All of my engines will go at different rpms depending on where I have the throttle set.Not sure about every level, my engine only goes at one rpm.
